The OR5M1 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO04197) is a powerful tool for research involving OR5M1, a member of the olfactory receptor gene family involved in odor recognition. This antibody is produced in rabbits and shows high reactivity with human samples, making it a reliable choice for Western blot applications. By binding specifically to the OR5M1 protein, this antibody allows for accurate detection and analysis in a variety of cell types, making it a valuable asset for studies in neuroscience and sensory biology.
OR5M1 is a key player in the olfactory system, helping to transduce odorant signals and contribute to the sense of smell. Understanding the function of OR5M1 is crucial for unraveling the complexities of olfactory perception and potentially developing new strategies for treating disorders related to the sense of smell. By using the OR5M1 Polyclonal Antibody, researchers can delve deeper into the mechanisms underlying odor recognition and gain valuable insights into the mysteries of the olfactory system.

NCBI Summary:
Olfactory receptors interact with odorant molecules in the nose, to initiate a neuronal response that triggers the perception of a smell. The olfactory receptor proteins are members of a large family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) arising from single coding-exon genes. Olfactory receptors share a 7-transmembrane domain structure with many neurotransmitter and hormone receptors and are responsible for the recognition and G protein-mediated transduction of odorant signals. The olfactory receptor gene family is the largest in the genome. The nomenclature assigned to the olfactory receptor genes and proteins for this organism is independent of other organisms.
